Ozy - Is this a bounce?

[donaleen and Ozy]

Ozy finally came down into more normal numbers this past week and now he is up again. Is this a bounce? I am terrible at recognizing bounces. Please take a look at his SS and let me know what you think.

thanks
donaleen

It's possible or it may be Ozy being Ozy.

I couldn't see when you started new Lantus. How old is your insulin?

 

[donaleen and Ozy]

We started a new vial on 10/17.

I am trying to decide whether to raise his dose.

Looks like a bounce to me

Welcome back...we've missed you and Ozy.

 

[donaleen and Ozy]

Thanks Marje and Sienne.

Sometimes it seems like Ozy starts a bounce and then forgets to come down....

I missed you, too, Marje.

it does look like a long slow simmer upwards to the top of the mountain. he seems to be perched there now. i wonder if he's going to dive off tomorrow. i think i might give it one more day and see if he comes down tomorrow.

I'm leaning toward holding the dose for another cycle. This could be a high before a break.

 

[donaleen and Ozy]

Thank you all. We held the dose and shot 5 units.

 

[Marje and Gracie]

Good job, donaleen. I wouldn't want him to come blazing down on you. Let's give him just a little time to clear.

Bounces can last up to 72 hours. Looks like it might be clearing now though.

 

[donaleen and Ozy]

And he is going up at +3.... darn

 

[julie & punkin (ga)]

curious. just looked at his ss and he's flat blues today. that's not a bad thing. flat blues are pretty good. let's see what he does tonight.

 

[donaleen and Ozy]

No longer blue, now yellow. 203 at +10

Hi Donaleen! Long time no see . . . looks like Ozy has been doing pretty well, though. I hope he comes down just from hearing the thoughts of an increase
